Lyrics

There's a change in fashion that shows In the Lennox Avenue clothes Mr. Dude has disappeared with his flashy tie You'll see in the Harlem Esquire What the well-dressed man will desire When he's strutting down the street with his sweetie-pie Let me tell you about it Come here! Suntan, shade of green Or an olive drab color scheme That's what the well-dressed man in Harlem will wear Dressed up in oldies With a tin hat for overseas That's what the well-dressed man in Harlem will wear Top hat, white tie and tails no more They've been put away till after the war If you wanna know Take a look at brown bomber Joe That's what the well-dressed man in Harlem will wear So help me! Top hat, white tie and tails no more They've been put away till after the war If you wanna know Take a look at brown bomber Joe That's what the well-dressed man in Harlem will wear
